I, Lois Lemery, have Just flown back from ray work which has taken me around the world. No one told me tnat a dietician would be kept so busy. When I left here, I went first to New York City where I was employed to arrange the meals in a large hotel. When I arrived in New York I looked for a hotel where I could stay. While I was inquiring for the best, a man told me that the Hotel Virginia was the largest and most popular. During my stay I had some trouble over mixed up luggage. I went to the manager to demand that something be done about it. When I walked into the office, whom did I see but Virginia Pawloski behind a huge desk, with eight secretaries at her command. My luggage was soon recovered, of course. The following day when I returned to the hotel lobby, I met David Winans, the Grove Hinman of Oriskany Falls. He was attending a farmers convention. Dave, still the same easy going, amiable, and hospitable-offered to show me the city. I was very fortunate to have seen him nominated Farmer of the Year. That same day I finished my work at the hotel and left for Washington, D. C. While there, I went to see the Library of Congress. When I walked in, I saw a familiar face behind the desk. I quickly realised it was my old classmate, Mary Garvey. She took me into a pri- vate room where we talked about what had happened since our school days. She is now an authority on children’s books and many large libraries are bidding for her services. ft L L H5 . That afternoon Mary and I decided to go for a ride. Mary mentioned the country and wanted to visit the big Faulkner Para on the hill. She told me that Delores Dowd was living there. We stopped the car and went up on the porch and rang the bell. Delores invited us in and we chat- ted for a while. We found out that she had married James Faulkner of Oriskanv Falls who is the owner of the farm. We asked her why she hadn t been to see us and her reply was between taking care of the children and the pigs, I don't go anywhere . On our way back to the city we became extremely hungry. Ye stopped at a little diner just outside of Washington,D.C I noticed a familiar odor. Upon looking out in the kitchen, whom did we see slinging the hash, but Donald Hehm. Don came out and talked with us, he said he had set up a chain of diners around the country. He told us he was working in there because it was his favorite When we returned to the city, I received a cable-ram asking me to come to Europe. When I went aboard the ocean liner I went to see the captain. When I saw him, he was none other than Dick Day. The -way all the rirls looked at hin, I knew he was still tie Romeo of Oriskany Palls. Dick invited me to dine wAlh him at his table that evening. Among the guests 1 found Norene Borayi and her husband.While talkinr to her at dinner, I found out that she had inherited a large sum of money from a Broadway producer and was on her way to raris. She told me she becume a well known star in Never, Never Trust a Man. L _ On my return trip from Europe I stopped at Algiers, Algeria, Africa. On the spur of the moment I decided to go on a hunting expedition into the Anglo-Sudan. We came upon a colony of natives who were greatly excited about the exploits of a great hunter. His recent capturing of 35 elephants was typical. Our wish to meet him was soon granted when we looked around and saw a man coming toward us. It was the big game hunter himself-Karvin Mininger, former National Rifle Association kniampion from Oriskany Palls. When I reflected upon these successive encounters with my one-time classmates, a surge of pride arose from within me. After all, they have made their places in the sun t I ■ f. w . Senior Class History THE GRADUATING CLASS New teachers, new faces, everything was different and exciting for sixteen pupils entering high school In the fall of 19 8. We enjoyed It all, especially the prospect or be- ing upper classmen. Although we lost five members, we managed to be seen and heard as Sophomores. We extended our activities to band, chorus, cheerleading, and athletics. We entered the realm of drama by presenting two plays which, if not appreciated,were at least enjoyed. Our underclass years provided us with valuable ex- perience with which to meet the challenge of the Junior year The delivery of our class rings late In the winter marked us officially as part of 0. P. H. S. Our Interests and activi- ties were not lessened; to them were added plans for our Junior Prom which was highly sucessful. By the fall of 1951,nine Seniors of our group remained. We had a busy year, adding to our former activities the pub- lication of the school paper and yearbook, and preparation for graduation. Throughout our high school years the raising of money for the Senior trip has been a matter of great concern. We have used all available methods by which we might finance the Journey to Washington and New York which Is planned as the climax of graduation week.

SUPHOMURE CLASS HISTORY To the twenty-six students who entered home room 28 in September, 195Qr evervthing was very new and exciting. It took us all quite a time to realize that we were actually Freshmen. At our first class meeting we chose our leaders. The coveted place of class president was awarded to JoanFaulkner Lucille Scarpino was elected vice-prosident; Barbara Mo ten and Arthur Scarpino were chosen secretary and treasurer, re- spectively. Our reporter for the Hilltop News was Sally Sigsbee. We asked Coach Farrow to be our class advisor, and much to our delight he accepted. In September, 1951,only twenty-two of the former twenty six Freshmen took their places as Sophomores. Four of our former students,Ronald Furness, Eleanor Bradbury, and George and June Turner, had left us. At a class meeting held early in September, Lucille Scarpino was elected president of our group. Arthur Scarpino was elected vice-president. Joan Faulkner and Sallyanne- Sigsbee were chosen secretary and treasurer, respectively. Sonya Krohn was elected reporter for the school newspaper. Because Coach Farrow had fulfilled our hopes of the year before, we again chose him as class advisor Freshman Class FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY In September, 1951 eighteen students filled the seats in room 28.

L _ I MEMORIAL AWARD A trophy honoring the memory of Curtiss LaTraille, one of the most outstanding athletes in the history of Oriskany Palls High School, has been presented by Mr.Roderick Elliot, his former classmate and friend. It is to be awarded annually to the senior boy who approaches most closely the precedent of athletic skill, successful scholarship, extra- curricular participation, and moral integrity established by Curtiss LaTraille. Curtiss, an all-round student, excelled In all sports, achieved a satisfactory academic record, and participated in school music activities. His record is an impressive one: In 1944 he was All Star League forward in Inter Valley Leaguejhe scored 2161 total points;51 all high; he captiined 1941 champions. Of his character it is enough to say that he was active in the affairs of his church and was well- liked by all who knew him, including young people who were inspired by his athletic ability and his conduct on and off the playing field. The senior who merits this award shall have his name inscribed on the trophy plaque and shall receive a certificate; a token to all his accomplishments.

SOCCLR Por the first tirne in almost fifteen years soccer was re-introduced to Oriskany Falls. The boys did a splendid job considering that it was their fir t year at the sport. They finished in third place this year and lost games by only a snail margin. Soccer will be played on a much larger scale here next year and a trophy will be given to the winning team in the league. Here is a list of the players and their positions: goaly, Dick Dav; fullbacks,DonaId Rehm and Marvin Mininger; half backs, Charles Lawton, Clyde Buell and Gerald Olmstead; line men, Raymond Dupree, Darrell Legacy, Peter Arsenault, Thomas Kirley, and Arthur Scarpino; substitutes Richard Preemire, Dick Drew, Francis Mercier, and Lawrence Cowles.
